Question:

Linear Equation In One Variable

solve x,


(3x)/(2) -7 = 5

Answer:


x = 8

Explanation:

Given


(3x)/(2) -7 = 5

Required

Solve for x


(3x)/(2) -7 = 5

Multiply through by 2


2((3x)/(2) -7) = 5 * 2


2*(3x)/(2) -2 * 7 = 5 * 2


3x - 14 = 10


3x = 14 + 10


3x = 24

Solve for x


x = (24)/(3)


x = 8
